Resonant Transfer of Coherence in Nonzero Magnetic Field Between Atomic Levels of DifferentgFactors

Abstract
Coherence transfer between atomic levels requires the matching of the Larmor frequencies. For levels with different g factors this occurs only in zero magnetic field. By changing the g factors through coupling with a nonresonant rf field, one can match the Larmor frequencies and make the transfer possible in nonzero magnetic fields. Resonances in the transfer appear, depending on the rf field amplitude. Rb87-Cs133 spin-exchange experiments are reported which provide an illustration of the theory.
